Getting some noises from my 08 Racing 3 hubs and would like to take a look and service them as money's too tight to mention. Anyone opened them up and done the job at home? What's the best way to go about it? Anything to watch out for?
Have previously serviced my Hope MTB hubs fine and done everything other than whack out the bearings (LBS) and install new ones.
They'll probably be very similar to the Fulcrum 7 hubs. Iserviced these and they are just as easy to do as hope ones. Whacking out the bearings and installing new ones is easy to do yourself, use the correct sized socket piece to do it with.
The only problem I encountered was removing the bearings from the free hub body, I dont think its possible and it sounds like you need to buy a whole new freehub.
Would that be a Fulcrum freehub? I'm running Shimano.
